Hey Jeff, does black work ok or does the paint wear off the aluminum diamonds. Black doesn’t blind one like silver on a sunny day. Thanks, Mike

I always use a light gray. Black gets super hot The gray doesn’t and it also wears better. It does t stand out as bad

I would l like to use 3/4 sheets of this type of cellular PVC to build the casting decks for my little 14ft boat. What would be the distance between the structural tube/angle aluminum profiles underneath to avoid too much deflection (bending)?

[@bowl830]

I’ve used 3/4 at 12” with no problem

[@kenfrazier616]
